Right, just thought I'd poke my foot in the door a little here. Along with RPing in WoW, I'm also part of a Star Wars RP forum based in the Old Republic era. You can choose to apply as either Empire, or Republic.

The Empire in the forum is a seperate little empire kinda like how Malgus had his group, that refers to itself as the True Empire. The Republic is a more aggresive branch of the Republic in terms of fighting the Imperials, given the whole Coruscant treaty and what not. Even if you've never RP'd on a forum format that's where the Recruit/Initiate phase comes in, based on which faction you choose to make an application for.

And don't worry about "Oh if I apply for this side then I can't go that side right?" that's where Alts come in, although you can only make an alt once you're a member which happens once you've gone through the Recruit/Initiate phase. Your alts don't need to go through the whole process of the previous phase either so that's a load of your minds already.

You can be Sith, Jedi, Smuggler, normal person, mercenary, trooper, scientist, medic, blah blah blah anything you can think of being in the Star Wars universe. So, if you think that a forum based RP sounds interesting for you and you'd like to give it a shot, then check us out.

If you do decide to apply, when it comes to "who referred you here" tell them T'lanna Harran sent you there. Even if you do make a smelly Republic character. *is not biased whatsoever as to affiliations*

We even have guilds in SWToR on the Ebon Hawk US Server if you want to take a peek in there. Although it is mainly on the Forum we RP, we do have members who pop up for RP on there.
